Enroute the main bearing in his car was damaged by a sandy sub stance that had been placed in the car. Mr. Chipps was delayed at Salt Lake City, Utah, several days and is at a loss to explain why anyone would damage his machine. I Preventing Sand from Blowing Is Topic— Last week's Holt soil conserva tion district question was sent in by Junior Grothe of Emmet. His question: ‘How can you keep sand from blowing’ Can you plant anything on it?” This was one of four chosen as win ners. The answer: This is a rather general ques tion and the stage will have to be set before definite answers can be given. Much of the sand land in Holt county is in native grass and if it is properly stocked (take half and leave half) there will be sufficient cover to prevent the sand from blowing. in cases where blow'outs have started and developed, many ranchers are doing a good job of keeping the sand from blowing by grading down the steep banks to at least a three-to-one slope, seeding it to native grasses and mulching it with old hay. This has proved very successful on a number of ranches throughout the county and it has been found i that when the steep banks are sloped, the wind currents are re duced and even without cover, I erosion is reduced. A three-to-one or flatter slope permits growth of grass over the i oared area and in a few years, ! (he sod will return to normal density. During this period of re I habilitation, the area should be protected from grazing. I If Junior is thinking of sand blowing from cultivated fields, there are two ways of preventing that. One, by maintaining a cover on the field at all times such as planting a winter cover-crop of vetch, small grain or forage sor ghum in the early fall and allow ing it to stay on the land over the winter. Another is by pro tecting the field with a good shelterbelt. Conway Graduates from Seminary EWING—James F.
